	Author	Review
United States	Justin Chang Variety	"The Hollywood romantic comedy hits an astonishing new low with this disastrous pairing for Pierce Brosnan and Salma Hayek. (...) From first frame to last (...) is some kind of hideous, a perfect storm of romantic-comedy awfulness"	NEG

United States	John DeFore The Hollywood Reporter	"Lovers of love would do better to go see 'Trainwreck' again."	NEG
